^^ That pretty much sums it up.

plan when I cut some serious weight was

Meal 1: 2 eggs, 1 cup of Go Lean cereal
Snack 2: Protein powder in water
Meal 3: Apple & 2 handfuls of almonds
Snack 4: Protein powder in Milk
Meal 5: Chicken breast with a side of some kind of greens or chicken salad

If your not into the whey protein powder then subbing some lean meat with fruit or veggies should work just fine.

From what i've heard and what's worked for me (don't know if science backs it up) is to eat most of your carbs early in the day and as you go on protein should be the focus with some "good" fats to keep you full.
